"Fun to drive, lovely automobile"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Pressure-point on clutch pedal adjusted higher.

General comments?

I love the car. Tight handling, short shifting, all around a real joy to drive. Only downside I've found is the lack of horse power, which I would have liked to be higher - in the 200 range as opposed to 180. Also would have liked to see a turbo option offered. But the way it is stock, it's still peppy.

There is an SF turbo kit now offered for the celica. And most people enjoy comparing it to a Prelude's 200HP... so here goes. Prelude (fatboy) 3250lbs. Celica 2250lbs.

I didn't check my facts there so correct me if I'm wrong.

Also the celica's quarter mile averages faster than the preludes, as does the 0-60 time. Horsepower isn't everything. Neither is torque when your car is as light as the celica.
